Therefore, the symposium should focus on the implementation of the "March 11 Decision", and I hope everyone can speak freely.

　　The first is that the Election Committee is broadly representative and can transcend the limitations of the interests of a certain sector, a certain region, or a certain group, so that the Legislative Council can better represent the overall interests of Hong Kong society; the second is the Chief Executive and the Legislative Council In this way, there is a common ground, which is conducive to handling the relationship between the executive and the legislature, and maintaining the executive-led system; third, it can also effectively prevent the Legislative Council from being manipulated by "Hong Kong independence" and radical separatist forces, resulting in extreme politics. This will enable Hong Kong to effectively safeguard the fundamental interests of the country and Hong Kong while steadily developing democracy.

　　[Explanation] Luo Huining stated that "Patriots governing Hong Kong" not only clarified political requirements, but also included capability requirements.

He pointed out that the central government has established a special department to invite election system and legal experts to participate, and communicate with all sectors of society through a variety of ways to continuously listen to social opinions.

　　Hong Kong society has spent a long time in politics. We need to catch up. We can no longer eat our roots. Among them, let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and let "One Country, Two Systems" be stable and far-reaching. The most important thing is to choose patriots who have both ability and political integrity. Come join the governance team.

This system needs to reserve enough political talents for the training of "patriots" so that we can have enough political talents to deal with complex social problems and resolve deep-seated contradictions in Hong Kong.

　　[Explanation] Wu Qiubei, president of the Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions, proposed that in recent years, the district councils have deviated from the original function of local advisory bodies in the governance structure of Hong Kong, and should use this opportunity to correct and improve them.

　　We have noticed that the legislative council members elected by the district councils have big problems, especially the district councils after the riots in 2019. They colluded with foreign forces, engaged in color revolutions, and opposed the National Security Law. Therefore, we think that the district council serves as a local advisory. The architecture should restore its original function.

　　[Explanation] Ye Liu Shuyi, member of the Executive Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government and Chairman of the New Democrat Party, said that as a elected member of the Legislative Council, she is very concerned about the composition of the Legislative Council, the distribution of seats, and the election methods.

She pointed out that loopholes in the election system in the past have caused some extremists to enter the governance structure of Hong Kong. Only by improving the election system and selecting high-quality managers can the deep-seated problems of Hong Kong society be solved.

　　The entry of many extremists into the Legislative Council has affected the governance of the government and has also prevented us from solving many deep-seated problems in society.

Therefore, I personally feel that the quality of elected members and the level of seats are more important than the number of directly elected seats.
